Some Basic Truths Dec 07, 2009
I understand why some passionately believe that Israel does not commit Apartheid, is not doing anything illegal when it builds colonies in the West Bank etc. This web site summarises the reasons why and goes into detail about the 'fallacy' that Palestinians exist (there are no Palestinians, it appears), and why the occupation is legitimate etc:

BASIC TRUTHS

1. The only reason people challenge the legitimacy of Israel, rationalize aggression against Israel and justify Arab atrocities, is that they hate Jews.

2. The media campaign against Israel is based on the fact that the Western TV stations, newspapers and radio stations involved are uneducated and/or anti-Semitic.

3. Those who support the Arab "Palestinians" don't really give a rat's ____ about the Arab "Palestinians." They simply hate Jews.

4. "Anti-Zionists" are still anti-Semites at heart. They merely mask their hatred of the Jewish people with a geo-political agenda.

5. The Jewish Left is the main threat to Jewish survival and Jewish existence, both in the Diaspora and in Israel. It is the Jewish SELF-HATING Left that prevents Israel from being able to deal with attacks upon the nation. It is the Jewish Left that rationalizes and legitimizes anti-Semites/anti-Zionists and implicitly joins them by blaming everything on the Jews.

6. Every concession or goodwill gesture to Arabs encourages Arab violence and aggression. It also encourages more open manifestation of anti-Semitism among the public in the West and in their media once they smell Jewish blood or Jewish in-fighting.

7. The anti-Israel lobbies will attack and attempt to de-legitimize Israel no matter what Israel does, no matter how many suicidal concessions she makes and no matter which Israeli political party rules the country.

8. Killing Arabs reduces Arab violence and aggression while dialogue with Arabs encourages Arab violence and aggression. The Arabs respect forces of strength, not cowardly appeasement. Don't accuse us of "Arab bashing." This is simply a fact.

9. Nothing has changed. If the Arabs were to perpetrate a new genocide against the Jews, the Western world would explain it as having been caused by Jewish shortcomings and sins. The Jews would simply build a few more Holocaust museums, light a few more candles and once again swear "Never Again!"

The above logic would basically mean that the majority of the world is anti-semitic.

Every year the United Nations General Assembly votes on a diplomatic settlement of the Israel-Palestine conflict. The resolution, "Peaceful settlement of the question of Palestine," calls for a two-state settlement based on the June 1967 border and a just resolution of the refugee question based on the right of return and compensation. Like every other year, the vote this year was 164 nations in favor, 7 against (Australia, Israel, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, Palau, United States) and 4 absentions.

I'm proud to say that the UAE, UK, Mauritius and 161 other nations voted for the resolution - also note that the ICJ ruling was taken into consideration in this resolution:
